possibility that its scratched itself while swimming or something.
though i minimise all edges in tank to be harmless.
but still could have.
i am starting to treat with melafix today and salt
but jsut wanna know if anyone seen this before.
thanks

I read of this once and I believe the guys fish had a bacterial infection and it was cured with clean water and maybe meds.

Bacterial infection is probably the cause. Don't worry just add salt about 1-2 tsp per 10g. It should be fine.
